2019 Lavender Tour
“”If you want the best tour of Provence, choose Emily as your guide. My husband and I enjoyed this years Lavender and Cultural Tour so much that the day before it ended I signed up to bring my 2 daughters next year! As a local Emily knows the history of the towns we visited as well as the best places to explore, eat and shop. She has a nice group of friends – chef Giuseppina cooked a delicious lunch and Raina took beautiful photos of my husband and I in the lavender fields. There were so many…”

May 2018 4-day private tour
“”After an amazing experience as a solo traveler on Your Private Provence’s Group Lavender Tour, ten months later I booked a private tour for my husband and me to see the poppies. Emily is warm, knowledgeable and flexible. We always felt safe and comfortable. Her recommendations for accommodations and restaurants were perfect. The itinerary on this second trip was completely different than the first trip…markets, hikes, wineries, picnics in fields of wildflowers, everything we asked for and…”

“Emily has an easy-going style that is friendly and accommodating. She delivered above expectation on all aspects of the tour, from market visits, accommodation, stops of interest, and restaurant choices. It was a positive and enjoyable way to see Provence for the first time.

July Lavender Tour 2021
“”A traveler is always faced with this secret dilemma…..once you have experienced the perfect tour, in the perfect place, arranged by the perfect host, do you tell the world or do you try and keep it a secret just a while longer?
Such is my dilemma having just returned from that ‘perfect’ week in Provence. I have decided to be magnanimous and share. After all, the world needs as much ‘perfect’ as it can find right now.
Emily’s Private Provence could just as easily be named Emily’s Perfec…”
October 2014 Day Tour of the Luberon
“”We spent a wonderful day with Emily as our guide touring the “Hill towns of the Luberon”. Our time with Emily was like spending a day with a family friend who gave us a personal tour of her adopted home. If you want an intimate and memorable time in Provence, we recommend Emily and Your Private Provence.”
Larry and Kathy Huhn, Oregon”

Emily created an outstanding itinerary, with just the right combination of interesting activities balanced with time for relaxation. The accommodations were quite unique and very comfortable. Your Private Provence allowed me to experience the region in a way I would never have been able to arrange on…”
